Read the excerpt from Immigrant Kids, and then answer the question. Most immigrants passed through Ellis Island in about one day

. Carrying all their worldly possessions, they left the examination hall and waited on the dock for the ferry that would take them to Manhattan, a mile away. Some of them still faced long journeys overland before they reached their final destination. Others would head directly for the teeming immigrant neighborhoods of New York City. What best paraphrases the central idea of the excerpt? Some Ellis Island travelers took long journeys before reaching their final home. The ferry ride to Manhattan from Ellis Island was a one-mile journey. It usually took one day to get through Ellis Island if people had many possessions. After leaving Ellis Island, the newcomers went on to live in many different places.

Answer:

After leaving Ellis Island, the newcomers went on to live in many different places.

Explanation:

Russell Freedman in his book "Immigrant Kids" tells of how young newcomers to America had to undergo various trials and hardships to get to their destinations. It gives a rare insight into the lives of these immigrant kids and their ordeals during their journeys.

For these kids in search of freedom, they had come to America, the '<em>land of the free</em>'. But the freedom they encountered was of a different kind. They had to do menial and odd jobs if they are to survive in the new place.

Ellis Island is the immigration station that enables the U.S. government to check the influx of immigrants into it's soil. The passage in the question is a perfect paraphrasing of the newcomers who left Ellis Island to live in many different places.

Orwell says that the incident with the elephant
Stels [109]

Answer:

When Orwell relates his experience with the elephant in “Shooting an Elephant” it gives some insight into his own psyche as well as the structure of imperialism. In this moment, he criticizes imperialism, showing that the leaders are controlled by the masses just as much as, if not more so than, the other way around.

He describes himself as being despised by the Burmese people. He is a colonial policeman, and in this role, he is associated with imperial British rule, propped up by the threat of force. (Orwell himself served in the Indian imperial police for a time, so the narrator's voice is likely his own.) When the elephant tears through the bazaar, killing a coolie, the Burmese crowd demands that he shoot and kill it. He does not want to do this, because by the time he arrives on the scene, the elephant has calmed, and no longer poses a threat to anybody. Orwell reflects that, in order to appease the angry crowd, he has to fill the role that they expect of him, which is that of a hated "tyrant." This is the paradoxical nature of empire- he must compromise his morality, become what the Burmese people already think he is, or risk their laughter and scorn. For someone that has already determined that he hates British imperialism, the incident is profoundly unsettling, but in a "roundabout way enlightening." It underscores the duality of empire, a world in which a man like Orwell can, as he says in the account, hold remarkably contradictory feelings:

The incident illustrates that, whatever objections they may have to British rule, imperial officials have to be hated to be respected.
